Credit cards seldom will call HR unless it's for foreigners, just to check the period employers grant them to be in Malaysia.

Loan yes, will call most of the time. Sometimes they want to confirm the salary information too against the payslip provided. For me, the employers are also obliged to adhere PDPA Act 2010 and cannot simply reveal employees' information to third party unless employees give the permission. I will get banks to write me an email and I will forward to employees for their reference and approval before I share.

Yes, I'm a HR in an MNC and I have the access to salary of every single employee working in our APAC, ANZ, China office. It falls back to the professionalism of HR practitioners and also if everything can't be shared to banks (assuming if employees don't give the permission, then nothing will be approved). So far, my employees are OK to allow us share such information with banks.

Bank like Bank Islam is very strict. Most of the time they will call HR for loans & cc. they will ask for the employee's salary if that's >Rm25k per month. They will verify if the amount is the same or not and HR just need to answer a simple 'yes' or 'no'.

Actually rightfully even yes or no also cannot simply answer. You wouldn't know if they are impersonating, that's why employers these days no longer do staff confirmation over phone anymore. Write an email if you want to know.

Most of the banks i know still did it in the way i mentioned.

Bank like Alliance they will google your company and they will know company background.. if small company they will be very careful in approving unsecured loans..

If bank like bank islam & BSN , Bank Rakyat found you are suspicious or forgery did happens, HR audit team will come to your company interview.. kinda strict nowadays smile.gif

Yes, happened recently.

Oh, and another question: Why am I not getting transaction alert via SMS every time, for both by AEON and Maybank AMEX card? I've already set the alert to trigger if I spend above RM1. But from my experience, about 30% of the time I didn't get an SMS. And this even happens when I use the card at the same place. For example, I have used my AEON CC to pay for my coffee at the same McD using paywave, but on some days I didn't get an SMS. This even happened once at Petronas (my card didn't get charged RM200).

I've called both AEON and Maybank call centre, and both responded saying that the transaction has not been charged to the card yet. But after a few days when I check my AEON unbilled transactions, the transaction finally appeared on the list.

sometime i did not get the SMS alert transaction too and i think it's normal
